Restoring a sporterized P13...

[Fazakerley]

I understand the "just leave it alone" school of thought but all I have right now is a sporterized P13, which is of little interest to me. It does however have the potential as an excellent restoration project.

Of course most of the parts won't be original. That's a given. But how many times have you visited a museum and seen a car, or an aircraft, which was found without most of its original parts and yet has been successfully restored?

The story of the Dornier "Flying Pencil" recovered from the Channel is just the latest example to make the newspapers.

So, we'll see what next year brings and what I manage to do with the remnants of a very important British rifle… I'll definitely keep you posted.

Thanks again.
